The Sum of Which by Jessica Law Lyrics

Have you ever thought
Of all the times that you've been caught
Paused in the pixelated walls
Of stranger's photos
Where do you go to?

When they take you home
Back to each corner of the globe
Oh, and you never even know
And they don't know you
How does it show you?

Were you okay that day?
Or were you weary, worried, grey?
Fragments in photo albums, promo pics and phones
Contextless clones
Oh, the sum of which will never makе a whole

If you slip and fall
Or if you walk into a wall
Or if the wind blows and shows all
Well, thеy're only strangers
Nothing can change this
And every strangled squeal
Every embarrassing ordeal
Every madly mangled meal
Every disaster
What does it matter?

You'll never meet again
Oh, but they did meet you then
Yes, and that's all they've got, and that's what will reside
In their mind's eye
Oh, the sum of which will never make a whole

And your best friend may say
Of a celebrity you hate
"Oh, you remind me of them, they
They are so much like you"
And they'd be right to

And every uncaught drift
Every wildly mis-thought gift
Highlights the ever yawning rift
Between how they see you
And how to be you

All of the different yous
Carried in isolated rooms
Within your father's, mother's, friend's and lover's minds
Even combined
Oh, the sum of them will never
And no matter what, they'll never
Till the day you die, you will never
Make a whole
